PATISSERIE
Traditionally the British eat "BUNS". These can vary from region to region, - even from town to town, and yet the basic idea remains the same. A sweet, rich dough is produced, and to this is added various fillings and/or toppings. In Shropshire we make a Butter Bun. This is achieved by creaming together brown sugar and butter. The dough is pinned from a small round ball into a flat disk. To this is added a knob of the butter mixture. The dough is then folded in half, another knob added and folded again, making a triangle shaped bun. Four of these are placed together making a big disk, and after proving and baking, they are dusted with icing sugar, and you have the stickiest, most scrumptious bun that you can get. Other regions produce a similar bun in varying guises, but using lard instead of butter, thus making the "Lardy Cake".

Apart from butter buns, we produce Chelseas, Iced buns, doughnuts and many others. However, the modern taste is getting more and more for Danish Pastries. Our range of hand made Danish is quite mouth watering, and we turn them out freshly every day.

Fresh Cream Cakes are another of our strong points, and we whip up many gallons of local cream daily to fill a variety of cakes.

We make Egg Custards daily from fresh eggs and fresh milk, Fruit pies crammed with the finest fruits, carrot cake, fudge cake, muesli slices, meringues, Viennese, fondant dips etc., not to mention our rich fruit cake for those wanting a slice of quality.
